i bet if you took ALL of the defensive players to EVER play at dook and the NFL (what there has got to be two or three in the last 100 years; right?) and added ALL of their sack totals up; they wouldn't even be close to peppers by himself...This is the worst fail I have ever witnessed in this forum...Dumb topic with NO facts to back up the topic... The facts support quite the opposite sentiment...

Where is all this stuff about Duke football coming from? If that's really how you want to judge a UNC football players success have at it, but do it in another thread and try and keep this one on topic.

Speaking of which - I absolutely have facts to back up that Peppers has been one of the most underwhelming players in the NFL this year. Look back at my posts and notice that until his most recent game, not a shred of evidence was supplied to fault my argument. Why? Because there isn't any.

Here you have Julius, one of the highest paid players in the NFL and the highest paid on his team, who didn't even manage to record a single statistic for nearly half of his games this year. Not an assisted tackle, a QB hurry, NOTHING. And I'm not the only one who has taken notice...

Julius Peppers, who will turn 34 at this season's end, has struggled mightily through the team's first six games - registering a combined eight tackles and one sack. He hasn't appeared on the stat sheet for two straight games.

Where is Julius Peppers? The 33-year-old defensive end is off to a quiet start. With Chicago's defensive line banged-up, the Bears need more from him.

@Redskins - #Redskins RB @Trey_Deuces rumbles 21 yards for the first down! He pushes DE Julius Peppers backward for the final 5 yards. #HTTR

Another Sunday gone, another underwhelming performance by Julius Peppers. JPep notched just 1 tackle this weekend in his loss to the Lions. For all of Pep's playing time (57 snaps), only recording 1 tackle is certainly not encouraging.

LOL at this thread, Julius Peppers is 10 x the player Mario Williams can even dream of being, and a future first ballot Hall of Famer who will be considered the second best defensive end of all time after Reggie White when he decides to hang em up. Better than Deacon Jones and Bruce Smith. LOL at Julius Peppers taking plays off, that is some made up BS that bitter fans and stupid media dummies around Charlotte made up about Peppers. Peppers had a slow start to this season because of a hamstring injury he suffered in training camp, he is now starting to heat up and had a career high 11 tackles today to go along with 2 sacks, 2 QB hits, and 2 stuffs.
